Now you will say that I’m exaggerating here. No I’m not. Imagine even the most totalitarian communities imaginable. The Stalinist [[regime]]. The [[real]] old one from the 30s. You would say but there everything was clear, no unwritten rules. Oh, their were.
Imagine a [[session]] of the central committee where someone stands up and starts to criticize [[Stalin]]. Now, everyone [[knows]] this was prohibited. But that’s the catch. Imagine someone else standing up and saying: ‘But listen, are you crazy? Don’t you [[know]] that it’s prohibited to criticize comrade Stalin?’ I [[claim]] the second one would be arrested earlier than the first one. Because although everybody knew that it’s prohibited to criticize Stalin, this [[prohibition]] itself was prohibited. The [[appearance]] had to be unconditionally maintained that it is allowed to criticize Stalin, but simply why criticize him since he’s so [[good]]. My point is that the appearance of a free [[choice]] had to be sustained…”
